I’m just going to be vulnerable for a minute here. I met the first person in real life who had similar server-y linux-y obsessions to me and we’d send eBay links of systems to drool over to eachother. They ended up being a terrible person but hid it from me pretty well until they couldn’t anymore and now I no longer have someone to chat with about those things.
So um, I guess I’m open for applications for the position of “nerdy friend who I nerd too hard with about network infrastructure and Linux packages” now

Your public key is no longer in my ~/.ssh/authorized_keys :(
That’s a serious breakup, can’t say I’ve even had anyone that close. Finding the right friends is like finding the right distro and it hurts when someone shows you an ugly part of them (ahem Red Hat).
It was just access to a VPS we had a couple of minor things running on so nothing too big, but still its a very real action that says “this is over” so hitting Ctrl+O then Ctrl+X was pretty heavy
You don’t use vim? I do not see how anyone could be friends with you.
jk, of course.
Yeah, :wq! Hits a lot harder than a Ctrl+x and Ctrl+o
It sucks but make sure to remove every means of potential attacks
Brutal. However, there’s plenty of us who fit that bill here, I’m sure.
I had a similar, we’d kept an IRC channel open for years, then he went off the deep end with conspiracies and I cut contact. I miss my friend but that friend was a chill software geek, not the rage addicted lunatic who took his place.
What made them so terrible?
There is no other place like 127.0.0.1
::1 is a compelling alternative
::1 and the same?
…ok that was a bad pun
Never apologize for puns. Each one is glorious.
